Now that looks like a band who are about to win summat.
With typical bad timing i had recently left and was playing with Haigh. So, although it's 37yrs late, congratulations lads on your 3rd section win

That picture was taken on the market at Wigan just before we left to go to the Nationals in London. We stayed at the hotel adjacent to Victoria railway station and I got in trouble for deciding to go "Walk-a-bout" in London on my own one night!... Seemed like a good idea at the time, Mr. Cavil did not agree!
